After much thought, Jaebum decided to be nonchalant with everything. Just to accept the fact that he was already there, and there was nothing he could do but try helping at this point.

He asked the boys tons of questions, getting some fully explained answers and some blunt one word answers:

"How did you get taller? How did you all get taller?"

"Ohhhh- our times and ages are different from yours. In this world, we're 5 years older."

....

"All of your powers? What are they? Bambam is making shit, Youngjae is... light? And what's Yugyeom's?"

"I have light power, but I can communicate with it as well. That's how I reached you, and also how we were able to ask Bam to make some wharls on the beach the other day."

"And my power is to make shit stop or float. Wonder how you're still alive after almost falling 100 meters to your death? Me."

After questioning, Bam and Yugyeom headed into their shared room to sleep. Turns out, this was both the male's house. And they were in a relationship.

Jaebum would of found this weird, considering the fact that in his world, same sex relationships weren't even a thing. But to him, things like being too feminine or masculine, or kissing the same gender, weren't a problem.

Just be yourself.

The house was quiet, the sounds of birds chirping and waves crashing against sand being heard in the distance. Jaebum sat back in his chair with eyes closed, breathing slow.

He wasn't tired. He didn't want to sleep. His mind was racing and his heart thumping harshly against his ribs. He was confused on what he actually wanted.

Does he want to go home? Did he not ask enough questions?

He didn't know.

"I'm sorry for everything."

Jaebum opened his eyes, turned his head towards the small voice and rose his eyebrows. "What exactly is there to be sorry for?" He asks, chuckling with disbelief.

"Kidnapping you, forcing you to stay here... leaving you outside. Just- everything." Youngjae mumbles, looking down at his hands in his lap. He was playing with the rings on his fingers, a pout making its way on his face.

The older didn't know what to say. He stares at the boy's face, then towards his small hands. Youngjae then looks up at him, cheeks tinted a soft pink.

"I-"

"You want to go look at the fish?"

Shivers were sent down Jaebum's spine. Nostalgia hitting him hard in the face. He knows these words, he's heard them before in his dreams. (a/n- props to chap 1)

"It's only late afternoon, it's still bright outside.
S-so we'll definitely be able to see them." Youngjae stutters, looking away from the older.

The only thing Jaebum could do was gawk at the younger, his heart racing now. After a few seconds, Youngjae glances at him confused.

"Jaebum-"

"Yeah. Yeah we can." The older states in a fast manner, standing up. Youngjae smiles shyly at this, standing up as well. He holds his hand out expectingly, his teeth biting down on his bottom lip.

"I-I'll take you to see them."

Jaebum grabs his hand and follows behind Youngjae's steps, letting the younger drag him out of the front door and towards the back of the house.
